Welcome to the Generation AI Podcast
Welcome to the Generation AI podcast, the place where we dive deeper down the rabbit hole around Generative AI and its applications. As you are well aware, since the launch of ChatGPT in November of 2022, Generative AI and LLMs have saturated almost all of our feeds and airways. However, while blogs and infographics on the subject are abundant, the number of organizations that have successfully implemented generative AI for a strategic initiative is still in the minority. With a mission to cut through the noise, we have launched The Generation AI Podcast. In this show, we will talk candidly and directly to individuals who are turning AI hype into hypotheses.
